Idk Why would a top 25 national team like John Curtis be scared of Atlantic and Columbia? Just because a team could beat a team don't mean they won't avoid them out of fear the team is good enough to challenge them and potentially beat them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that is one of many reasons why a team from Hawaii will not participate in this event. Highly doubt Stl would take part. I know last year they where invited but turned it down do to the late timing of it and it was supposedly finals week. I think they could play with teams from Arizona andWashington. Idk though goe they would fare against big times school from Georgia,Florida and Texas. Dont think the lines would do so well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, no, no... they raised the money alright.... raised the pocketbooks and wallets of the parents. Entry level Porsche will get you a sneer and a frown in the carpool lane.

Hasn't everyone seen enough of SFA? They're great. But they're not HS football. Too bad Texas and Cali can't play. Haven't we seen enough Florida and Georgia games? Switch it up a little bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to truth when it comes to SFA. People keep saying that they're not eligible for the games this year and then they'll come back and say that they are eligible.

Ya know...honestly...since Rush is no longer at Colquitt...I don't think it's that big of deal to the admin. Of course, for us...it's a moot point this year. We lost. But had we actually gone on to win the AAAAAAA Championship...I believe it would have been "iffy" for us to accept. Now if we were gonna play in the Hawg Pen...with no travel expenses...maybe we would have...but other than that..... I'm afraid the pendulum is swinging back to isolation mode.

old_e Posted November 26, 2019 Report Share Posted November 26, 2019 Their only hope of another game this season is the Geico series. I doubt any of those teams would go out of their way to comply with his request. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The open championship is this Friday so if the winner of that game is invited they would have to wait 21 days before playing in the geico bowl series. It just does not work for Hawaiian teams.

Then, we get the, "I'm thinking more on playing in state powers." Small ball small picture type of thing. That not from admin though. Everything is all wishy washy and seems uncertain. I think the admin are likely att odds with that first and more in line with the latter. Next year will be interesting. I figure isolation and desolation could definitely be on the horizon because some god has a plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's public knowledge or not...but Colquitt lost money the last (3) years we played in the Corky Kell. Two more were barely break even. Which was a major reason I was screaming to dump the Corky Kell opener and play the opener in Mack Tharpe. Colquitt is a blue collar/no collar community. Play at home if/when you can.

Not that difficult unless you’re in a depressed, poverty-strickened area. Fundraising is important. Upon a successful fundraising campaign, the question becomes :"How should we spend this money?" The options are things like improving the program's facilities; buying new equipment, jerseys etc; other enhancements to make the program better; OR, paying to play a game against some team from another state so a few glory-seekers can get some. Let there be no doubt, there are MANY young, ambitious coaches who want to make a name for themselves who see that last choice as the best one. How does that help the program? That's the wrong question in those cases. Because, in those cases, the coach doesn't actually give a shit about the program. He wants to make a name for himself so he can become a star. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the uses for Colquitt "fundraising" has been our nutritional program in the past. I have always appreciated that concept. It beats the shit outa traveling to Timbuktu to play a football game. And it also pays intangible dividends to your program...and to the community. Rufus>> 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
